Self-Employed Mortgages

Business owners, contractors and commissioned earners: mortgage options that understand how you actually earn.

Your tax return doesn’t tell the whole story

Smart tax planning can make your income look lower on paper, and that can make a bank say no. We work with lenders that look at the full picture of your business.

  • Traditional (A-lender): 2 years of T1 Generals and NOAs, and income averaged over two years.
  • Stated income programs: insured options with as little as 10% down, based on reasonable income for your industry.
  • Alternative (B-lender): flexible documentation and bank-statement programs, typically with 20% down.
  • Gross-up and add-backs: some lenders add back business expenses like depreciation.
